Default STI WHEELS & TYRES ON A WRX.

Just a quick question guys, will new age sti wheels and tyres fit straight onto wrx hubs (2006) without any adverse effects and do the wider tyres look ok on the wrx.

No if you're talking about MY05 (and possibly MY06) wheels - the bolt hole pcd is larger on the STi wheels (ø114.3mm STi vs ø100mm WRX)

MY03/04 STi wheels should fit for pcd but I don't know whether there's any difference in offset...

Anyone know what the offset of '05 STi wheels is?

I was looking at 04/05 model year with the b/stone re070 tyres fitted. I don't like the look of the silver wheels on the my06 wrx.
If any body has got a set of as new gold wrx wheels or sti with the same bolt holes, drop me a message.

Deano,
MY04 STi wheels are the same style as the MY05 STI wheels, ie 10 spoke, but have a different PCD for the studs.

They are not interchangable.

There is a set on Ebay that are listed as MY04/05 STi wheels but they cannot be fitted on both year models.
If they are MY04 they will fit a WRX if they are MY05, they will not.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUBARU-IMPREZA...QQcmdZViewItem

The STi MY02/03/04 wheels have the same PCD, as do the WR1 wheels, along with the anthracite Sti pattern wheels removed from WR1's before they got their PPF7 wheels fitted, and are the same PCD as all the newage WRX's.

Like these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Subaru-Impreza...QQcmdZViewItem

The STi MY05/06 have the same PCD and it is unique to these 2 vehicles.

The same as the STi 02.
